Monoprice Cat6 fixed length network cables are the perfect combination of value and performance. Available in a large assortment of colors and lengths, we have a cable to fit every situation. Each cable is made of 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductor pairs with 50µm gold plated contacts (short body). Most budget cables skimp with only 10µm. Each cable features color matched, snagless strain relief boots.

The problem is that some manufacturer's cut costs by using Copper Clad Aluminum wire for their conductors. The aluminum has a higher resistance, which causes more heat and can thereby present a fire hazard. "Bare copper" is the term used in the National Electrical Code, Underwriters Laboratories, and the Communications Cable and Connectivity Association (CCCA). Our use of the term is intended to communicate our total compliance with their standards for Ethernet cable construction.

Well packaged. Speedy shipment even when we had bad weather throughout the U.S. at the time. Like always a quality product and works as intended. If you're not creating your own cables from large spools with modular connectors and the relief boots, then this is clearly the place to get your network cables within several different colors and sizes.

What a value!!

Pros: Fast, reliable, and PURPLE!!

Cons: NONE!

Normally a Cat6 of this length and quality would be triple this price! This cable provides perfect connectivity to my high speed gigabit connection with not even a hiccup. Plus Monoprice's selection of colors is wider than those at any retailer.

This cable is great, has a unique twisted-braid feel to it. It won't make your gigabit connection magically faster but it will guarantee you won't lose any performance. For cables longer than 2m I only get CAT6 for my gigabit. I really love the solid connectors, I have two toddlers and no matter how well I store my cables I find one in their mouth at least twice a month. After 2 years they still haven't broken the clips on this one. Awesome! Great job Monoprice!
